'Stressing' rodent self-grooming for neuroscience research
Nature Reviews Neuroscience 17, 591 (2016).
doi:10.1038/nrn.2016.103
Authors: Cai Song, Kent C. Berridge & Allan V. Kalueff
We appreciate the thoughtful Correspondence by Fernández-Teruel and Estanislau on our Review (Neurobiology of rodent self-grooming and its value for translational neuroscience. Nat. Rev. Neurosci.17, 45–59 (2016)), which raises the issue of the relationship between stress (Source: Nature Reviews Neuroscience)

Meanings of self-grooming depend on an inverted U-shaped function with aversiveness
Nature Reviews Neuroscience 17, 591 (2016).
doi:10.1038/nrn.2016.102
Authors: Alberto Fernández-Teruel & Celio Estanislau
The relationship between rodent self-grooming and stress and anxiety-like behaviour, and the regulation of such grooming by several emotion-linked brain areas, such as the amygdala–bed nucleus of the stria terminalis–hypothalamus circuit, are among the issues discussed by Kalueff et al. in their recent, excellent (Source: Nature Reviews Neuroscience)

The enigmatic mossy cell of the dentate gyrus
Nature Reviews Neuroscience 17, 562 (2016).
doi:10.1038/nrn.2016.87
Author: Helen E. Scharfman
Mossy cells comprise a large fraction of the cells in the hippocampal dentate gyrus, suggesting that their function in this region is important. They are vulnerable to ischaemia, traumatic brain injury and seizures, and their loss could contribute to dentate gyrus dysfunction in such conditions. (Source: Nature Reviews Neuroscience)

Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors in nervous system development and disease
Nature Reviews Neuroscience 17, 550 (2016).
doi:10.1038/nrn.2016.86
Authors: Tobias Langenhan, Xianhua Piao & Kelly R. Monk
Members of the adhesion G protein-coupled receptor (aGPCR) class have emerged as crucial regulators of nervous system development, with important implications for human health and disease. In this Review, we discuss the current understanding of aGPCR functions during key steps in neural development, including cortical (Source: Nature Reviews Neuroscience)
